The favorite feedback from my colleagues is, “you have analytical and creative perspectives and a bit quirky.” Also, I am ambitious. I embrace my quirkiness and ambition since 1986.
A Japanese grew up in the US and currently working in Sweden. I traveled to 49 countries to explore. Full of insights and world experience across APAC, Nordics, and the US.
I am carrying the experiences from
- agency creative
- brand development team
- freelancer
Specialized in building and implementing B2C activations.
Had navigated external advertising agencies/PR agencies/talent agents/production companies and align internal business stakeholders to develop the assets on/offline.
As an occasional writer, I understand a sweet spot of journalists’ stories and the brand selling points.
Last and not least, I am a professional public speaker trained by the Japanese prime minister’s cabinet office.
